Throwdown with the TDE love...I like that. Saw Kendrick Lamar at UW a couple weeks ago and he killed it. By far, my favorite hiphop show at the moment. Was supposed to go see Ab-Soul at Neumo's on Sunday but forgot all about it. Dopest crew out IMO.

TDE is definetly one of the more talented crews out there right now. I remember when Jay Rock dropped his first mixtape with "All My Life" on it which got him notoriety, I heard the Kendrick Lamar song "City Is Mines" when he went by K.Dot, that got me onto the Kendrick Lamar train heavy for some reason. IMO you can't go wrong with anyone of them, Jay Rock, Ab-Soul, Kendick Lamar, and Schoolboy Q, They're all talented and got a little of their own personal style to them I like it.

Thats a good question... I really can't name someone whos making an impact outside of ASAP Rocky, but he really doesn't have that gritty NY sound everyone is used to. Theres a few from NY I like though like Maffew Ragazino who's got that feel, theres another dude named Joey Bada$$ hes got that sound too

Heres some Ragazino..

Joey Bada$$...

and a newie from 50 Cent, his whole new album sucks except one song...

Journalism is dead, it's been replaced by creative writing aka fake news.Critical thinking is pretty much dead too. I miss the hearsay rule. The concept of "ethic" has been stripped from the Journalism curriculum.

It's probably already been mentioned somewhere in the thread but Snoop Dogg's Doggystyle is unquestionably the greatest rap album ever produced. The stuff that comes out today just doesn't compare to that 1990's west coast gangsta shiz.

Early 1990's west coast rap was the best with east coast late nineties giving it s run for it's money. Anything today doesn't compare. Snoop dogg being the greatest album ever is a stretch.

Early-mid 90's east coast will always be my favorite but there's definitely some west coast sprinkled in there.

The Chronic is so many times better than Doggystyle it's not even a debate.
